Research Abstract

There is a vivid life in an attractive city. It is important to promote people's life as well as the physical improvement of environment in order to increase the attractiveness of cityscape and to revitalize downtown. Public space, for example, street and square is a major stage of people's life in a city. It is essential to establish a proper system to control the use of public space in order to improve the quality of cityscape.
The purposes of this study are the followings :
●to analyze the control systems and procedures in Western cities where the public space use has a long and rich tradition ; and
●to suggest a way to develop the public space use in Japan through an experiment of outdoor cafe and parasol gallery.
The results are the followings :
(1)we analyzed cases of 11 Western cities, namely, Paris, London, Milan, Copenhagen, Stockholm, Helsinki, San Francisco, Portland, Seattle, New York and Curitiba, and explained the characteristics of their control systems and procedures on the public space use ;
(2)we analyzed cases of pioneer cities in Japan, such as Hiroshima, Yokohama and Nagoya, as well as 2 Korean cities, namely, Seoul and Cheongju, and explained a potential approach to the public space use ; and
(3)we made a continuing experiment with an outdoor cafe and a parasol gallery in Chiba, and analyzed the effect of the public space use on cityscape improvement and downtown revitalization.
